Title: Lot of 20 Vintage Asian Brushes - Large "Shanlian Hubi" Included - Wabi-Sabi 【Description】 This is a fantastic collection of 20 vintage Asian calligraphy brushes (known as Fude in Japan and Mao Bi in China). This diverse lot includes a fascinating mix of traditional Japanese domestic brushes (Wafude) and premium imported Chinese brushes (Karafude / Karamono). [Design & Features] Premium Highlight: This lot features an exceptionally large and thick Chinese brush from the world-renowned "Shanlian Hubi" tradition, clearly engraved with "Supervised by Zhiting" . Shanlian Hubi is historically celebrated as the absolute pinnacle of Chinese brush-making (one of the Four Treasures of the Study). This massive brush, along with the other diverse sizes in the lot, is highly sought after by modern artists, painters, and calligraphers for creating bold, dynamic strokes and expressive "Sumi-e" (ink wash painting). The handles are beautifully crafted from natural bamboo and wood. The bristles are made of high-quality traditional natural hair. [Condition Report] Condition: USED / VINTAGE (WABI-SABI) These are authentic, previously used calligrapher's and artist's tools. They show natural signs of age, wear, and historical use, including dried ink residue on the bristles, faded labels, and natural aging/scratches on the bamboo and wood handles. Far from being a defect, this authentic wear adds to their profound "Wabi-Sabi" aesthetic and historical charm. (Please carefully examine all photos to confirm the condition of the bristles and handles before bidding).
